RUNNER'S GOODIE BAG

IMPORTACO NATURAL COCKTAIL

Long-distance running is one of the most demanding activities for athletes. Our diet is the key to being able to face these challenges and the Importaco Natural Cocktail is the best snack to help us cope with them. It contains almonds, walnuts and cashew nuts, with nothing added… simply natural. A great source of fibre.

CENTRAL LECHERA ASTURIANA SUPREME MILK

Each glass of Central Lechera Asturiana Supreme milk provides you with 25% of your daily protein requirement, 50% of your calcium and 100% of your vitamin D. All without artificial additives. And all this because, thanks to our ultra-filtration process, we naturally concentrate the best of our milk: providing you with more calcium and more protein to help maintain bone and muscle mass.

CHIC-KLES EUCALYPTUS-FLAVOURED SUGAR-FREE GUM

Want to feel the intensity? Enjoy its powerful, long-lasting flavour for a unique experience. With fluoride, calcium and xylitol. Sugar-free, gluten-free, vegan and halal.

NOCILLA MINI COOKIES

Mini Cookies with a creamy palm-oil-free Nocilla filling and crunchy crust topped with delicious chocolate drops.

COLACAO

ColaCao sachets are the perfect format for enjoying the full flavour of ColaCao on the go. They allow you to personalise your breakfast just the way you like it -with hot or cold milk, with double foam, in a large glass, adding just the right amount of ColaCao- so you don’t miss out on your daily ColaCao, in a bar or wherever you prefer.

VITHAS VASELINE

It is very important to avoid chafing during the race. To help with this, Vithas, our health sponsor, has prepared a packet of vaseline for each runner.

FUZE TEA

Fuze Tea, the global tea brand from Coca-Cola. Coca-Cola launched its own tea business in Spain as of 1 January 2025 under the Fuze Tea brand, its first global brand in this category. Fuze Tea successfully arrived in our country in 2023, and since then it has been winning over Spanish consumers. It expanded its range at the end of last year with the launch of Fuze Tea Original Flavour. The range is also available in other familiar flavours, including: Lemon, both in a low-calorie and sugar-free version, along with Green Tea-Passion Fruit and Mango-Pineapple (the latter only in the Canary Islands), both low in calories.

BRILLANTE QUINOA

You will find both white and red quinoa in Brillante quinoa tubs, so you can enjoy all its fibre, proteins, minerals and essential fatty acids. An easy, quick and 100% natural way to eat quinoa, heat it in just 1 minute in the microwave or eat it cold without heating, as a side dish or salad.

PATATAS MELÉNDEZ POTATOES

Patatas Meléndez microwave potatoes are the ideal food for runners: rich in complex carbohydrates, they provide sustained energy for long training sessions. They provide potassium, key to preventing cramp, and are low in fat. Versatile and natural, produced without any processing or additives, they are an excellent way to regain strength.

AquaBona is natural mineral water from four springs: Santolín (Burgos), Fuenmayor (Teruel), Peña Umbría (Valencia) and Fontoira (Lugo), all of them chosen using rigorous technical criteria to guarantee maximum quality. The water from each of these four springs also has a very similar composition.

But not only that. In order to preserve the sources, only the amount of water that they are capable of generating naturally is extracted, thus ensuring their sustainability.

Info Registration 2026

The organisers of the Valencia Marathon Trinidad Alfonso Zurich are introducing a new registration process and form for the 2026 event, incorporating a new draw system or ‘ballot’ to give the same opportunities to all the runners who want to participate in future races and avoid the platform becoming overloaded and the resulting dissatisfaction or frustration this can cause for popular races, such as this one.

This will allow the preferential loyalty period (4 days) to be maintained for runners registered in the 2025 race who want to repeat in 2026. Subsequently, registration will then be open to the general public for the draw or ‘ballot’ for the remaining places available until all the 35,000 race bibs have been allocated.

Registration 2026 Scheduled dates and deadlines

7 Dec	2025 Event
11 to 15 Dec	Preferential loyalty deadline (4 days)
From 16 Dec	Registration in the draw / ballot
Pending	Draw / ballot
Pending	Results sent to runners
Pending	Registration of entrants chosen in the draw (12 days)
Pending	Spare places filled from waiting list

Registration Valencia Marathon 2026 – FAQ’s

WHO CAN REGISTER DURING THE PREFERENTIAL PERIOD?

Anyone who has an active registration for the Valencia Marathon 2025 (i.e. anyone who registered and has not cancelled their registration due to injury, change of bib holder or refund) can register for the event in 2026 during the 4-day preferential period.

If you do not register during this phase, you will still be able to register afterwards in the draw or ‘ballot’ along with everybody else, but you will lose the guarantee of having a reserved place in the first phase.

How do I sign up for the draw or 'ballot'?

To sign up you will need to enter the ID or passport number, date of birth, email and full name of the person who wants to run.

These details cannot be changed later in the registration process. This is in order to avoid the situation where a runner who is chosen in the draw can give their place to another runner.

Can I register more than one person?

Yes, you will be able to complete a registration form for up to three people in case you want to run with a family member or friend, but you will have to fill in their personal details, which cannot be subsequently modified.

These details cannot be modified later in the registration process, in order to avoid the situation where a runner who is chosen in the draw can give their place to another runner.

IS THERE A FEE TO REGISTER FOR THE DRAW?

No, but when you register for the draw or ‘ballot’ you will need an active bank card on which a 5 euro retention will be made for 7 days.

After this period, the amount will be automatically released. This means that we will not charge you anything for registration in the ‘ballot’ regardless of whether you get a place in the draw to register in the race or not.

CHANGING DETAILS

The details cannot be changed later in the registration process, in order to prevent a runner from registering with the details of more than one person. Registration will be free of charge, but only one registration per person will be allowed.

Registration will be free of charge, but only one registration per person will be allowed. However, the same person may register up to three people if they wish to run as a couple, family or group of friends.

WILL I BE NOTIFIED IF I AM CHOSEN IN THE DRAW?

Yes, after the official draw or “ballot” takes place, which will happen before a notary, the organisers will communicate by email to all participants whether they have been awarded a place to register for 2026.

Those who have not been lucky will have to wait for their chance by registering on the Waiting List in case of future cancellations or take advantage of the race bibs held by the official agencies or tour operators authorised by the event.

WHAT HAPPENS IF I DO NOT COMPLETE MY REGISTRATION?

Once you have received the email confirming that you have been chosen in the draw, if you do not then complete and formalise your registration for the Valencia Marathon within 12 days the reserved race bib will be cancelled, and you will lose the guarantee of being able to run in the event.

The place will be allocated to a person from the Waiting List at the end of this 12-day period to complete the maximum quota of 35,000 bibs.

Terms and conditions for 2026 registration
Preferential registration phase
To purchase a race number for the 2026 edition of the Valencia Marathon, there will be a preferential period of 4 days from 11 to 15 December for all runners who purchased a race number in their name for the 2025 edition and have not renounced it (either due to injury, change of owner, use of the refund service, etc.).
2. Registration for the ballot
If there are still race numbers available once this preferential period has ended, a registration period will open on 16 December for the ballot, so that people who do not already have a race number can apply to purchase one, provided they meet the requirements to participate in the race (see rules). The registration period for the ballot will end on 7 January 2026 at 11 a.m.
If more people register than there are race numbers available, a draw will be held before a notary, who will draw a single winning registration number, followed by the rest of the winning numbers in sequential order until the number of available race numbers is filled.
You must register to participate in the draw, which is free of charge, but when registering for the draw, you will need an active bank card, from which €5 will be held for a maximum of 7 days. After this period, the amount will be automatically released, regardless of the result of the draw. Without the €5 deposit, you will not be considered registered in the draw.
Once you have completed the form, you will receive your raffle entry number at the email address you provided.
Registration for the raffle is non-transferable. You can register as an individual or as a group (up to three people), but in all cases you will need to fill in the necessary personal details and you will receive one entry number per person.
Only one registration per person is possible. If it is found that a person has attempted to register for the draw on several occasions, with several emails, etc., that person will be expelled from the draw and will not be entitled to participate in it.
The details entered when registering for the draw cannot be changed during the race number purchase process.
3. Registration deadlines and dates after the draw
Once the draw has taken place, the beneficiaries will have 12 days to purchase their race number via the link they will receive in their email, which will already include the same details they used when registering for the draw.
If the beneficiaries of the draw do not purchase their race number within the specified period, they will lose the opportunity to register with this guaranteed place, and the places that have not been filled will be assigned, in order of registration, to those who have registered on the official waiting list for the race, which will be opened for this purpose.

Aid after the flooding

On 29 October 2024, a low-pressure storm caused flooding that ravaged the province of Valencia, leaving more than 200 people dead and many villages affected in a disaster zone.

The Valencia Marathon Trinidad Alfonso Zurich, which took place on 1 December, launched the ‘Valencia runs 4 Valencia’ campaign to help the affected towns and people rebuild their infrastructure and their lives.

In total, the Valencia Marathon raised more than 1,000,000 euros through donations mainly received in one of three ways:

Organisers: SD Correcaminos

The race organisers themselves pledged to donate 3 euros for each of the 28,590 participants who reached the finish line. However, SD Correcaminos then made an extra effort to raise even more money, increasing this initial figure to 227,000 euros.

Runners and supporters

A bib number zero was created so that runners and supporters of the event could donate the amount they wished through the authorised platform.

In total, 205,000 euros were raised from individual donations, but also from transfers from running clubs around the world and even event tour operators.

The donations made through the platform included €15,062 donated by HOSBEC, which pooled the contributions from the hotel sector; €28,590 (one euro per finisher) donated by the race sponsor Patatas Meléndez; and €4,000 in prize money originally destined for the ‘Shopkeepers Also Run’ campaign carried out in conjunction with the Association of Historic Centre Shops, which decided to contribute this money to the ‘Valencia runs 4 Valencia’ fund; as well as €3,000 from the prize money for the Running Fallero competition, which the Trinidad Alfonso Foundation chose this year to donate to the six commissions on the Valencia Central Fallera Committee in the city’s worst affected districts.

New Balance

The third way was the donation from New Balance. The event’s sporting brand threw itself into helping those affected in the province of Valencia and pledged to donate a total amount of more than 600,000 euros.

All of this contribution from New Balance has been destined, through an agreement with the town council, to completely rebuild the synthetic surface and the facilities around the athletics track in Guadassuar. In addition, the Valencia Marathon sports brand also donated 40,000 euros to Bombers pel Món.

Destination of the donations

The focus of the donations is on the running schools and clubs, as well as the municipalities, affected by the flooding for the reconstruction of their sports facilities. Specifically, an agreement was signed with the Valencian Community Athletics Federation, through which more than 62,000 euros have been given to the federated athletics clubs in Algemesí, Torrent, Catarroja and L’Om de Picassent. Also more than 7000 euros has been donated to the clubs in Aldaia and Benetússer, which have athletics schools.

Similarly, more than 4,800 euros were given to CEIP Lluís Vives school in Massanassa (including a contribution from the Association of Historic Centre Shops) to purchase a completely set of new sports equipment for the school, which collapsed and whose pupils had to move to the former teacher training college in Valencia.

In addition, an agreement has been signed with Llombai Town Council for the repair of the changing rooms and the outside area around its athletics track for 60,000 euros and another agreement has also been signed with Requena providing 12,000 euros to repair its track. Finally, another significant sum is planned for the restoration of the track in Torrent, with the renovation of the synthetic track around the entire ring along with the long jump area and the high jump and pole-vaulting mats, for a value of more than 237,000 euros.

Community programs

Likewise, athletes expressly undertake to follow the instructions and restrictions imposed on them in agreement with the health management of the event.

Any runner arriving at km 25 after 12:57 p.m. on 7 December 2025 will have to hand in their bib, abandon the race and/or get into the sweeper car as they exceed the projection for the overall limit set by the organisers for the end of the race (the aforementioned 5:30 hours, after taking into account the staggered start times for the waves).

All runners who register with the aim of finishing the marathon in under 3h12:00 must provide proof of their previous best time in a marathon, half marathon, 15K or 10K in the last 3 years, either through the procedure set up on the registration website or at the request of the organisers

Times and Boxes

Article 4: Box

The only data the organisers will take into account when assigning the categories will be those provided by the runner themselves on their registration form.

For organisational or safety reasons, and always in agreement with the athlete, the organisation reserves the right to change, under exceptional circumstances, the box assigned to a runner and also to close the process for changing from one box to another. A change will be made as long as the capacity of the box allows it.

For accreditation of the starting box, we will verify the data collected at the time of your registration. Some times are automatically verified by comparing them with your results from previous editions of our races (Valencia Marathon, Valencia Half Marathon). In other cases, we will ask you for additional information with a URL or link to an approved race in which you have participated with an equivalent time (previous ranking in 10K, 15K, half marathon or marathon in the last three years; 2023-2025).

Article 5: Changing start wave

The organisers will allow the start box for the 2025 edition, as long as the capacity of the box allows it, to be changed free of charge in the self-management area, provided the change is made until 7 November and the link proving the improved time is accredited, through the registration website in the Runner’s Area section “Request a change of Box”.

From 8 November, once the bibs have been printed, it will be possible to change the box by paying 25 euros to cover reprinting and management costs until 27 November 2025 (inclusive).

Each runner commits to accepting their starting box at the time of registration and accepts responsibility for providing proof of their personal best records. Therefore, the athlete accepts that the box or starting wave selected at the time of registration will be the one that corresponds to them. With the exceptions provided for in the preceding paragraphs.

Registration and prices

Article 6: Registration

6.1 Maximum capacity and prices

There will be a maximum of 35,000 bibs numbers available.

The prices and tranches* will be as follows:

Bib numbers no. from 1 to 10,000: €80.
Bibs numbers from 10,001 to 20,000: €120.

(*) This price does not include the Day Licence (5 euros mandatory) for runners who do not have a current national licence (RFEA), Valencian regional licence (FACV) or Runner Plus Card.

The promotions offered by the race will be communicated to the interested parties and will not be cumulative.

Registration will be closed when the maximum quota of 35,000 registered runners has been reached, thus guaranteeing a sustainable increase in the number of runners, a quality experience for the runners and the best possible safety conditions.

The organisers will set up a waiting list through the official website to fill any vacancies that may arise due to runners dropping out, at a price of €200 per registration.(plus €5 for the Day Licence).

6.2 Registration for persons with disabilities:

Any athlete with a disability that can be included in any of the four adapted categories will enjoy a discount on registration, taking into account the tranches and dates indicated above, provided they requirements described above, and if there are bibs available.

To compete in any of the four adapted categories (wheelchair, functionally disabled, sensory disabled and intellectually disabled), registration must be formalised with the FESA (Comunitat Valenciana Adapted Sports Federation), whose contact email address is 21k42k@fesa.es, and telephone +34 963465726. The FESA contributes its criteria, knowledge and experience to ensure the correct grouping in the different categories.

Any athlete who, for whatever reason, does not register through the FESA, will not be classified in any of the four categories of athletes with disabilities, nor will they receive a discount.

Each blind or visually impaired (B2) athlete who requires one will have the right to be accompanied by a guide whose registration will be 100% free and will be made directly through the FESA. There can only be one guide for each athlete with visual impairment.

6.3 Registrations will be made through the website
https://tickets.valenciaciudaddelrunning.com/ (as long as numbers are available).

The website https://tickets.valenciaciudaddelrunning.com/ managed by S.D. Correcaminos is the only official and authorised online distributor for registration in the race, so, under no circumstances is registration or the purchase of bibs through different platforms recommended.

The organisers are not responsible for the reliability, veracity and/or suitability of registrations made through third parties, nor do they assume any obligation regarding the availability of places, stock and/or price.

No guarantee is given regarding the recognition of any rights relating to the guarantee, withdrawal, exchange and/or any other rights recognised to the registered persons if the products are not the official ones or have not been obtained through S.D. Correcaminos and/or the website https://tickets.valenciaciudaddelrunning.com/.

The above is without prejudice to registrations made through official tour operators and included in travel packs, which in any case will redirect to the aforementioned website for the purpose of completing the registration directly on the authorised distribution platform.

6.4 Sub-elite bib status will apply to athletes who apply with times under 30:00 in a 10k or 10,000m race, 1h06:00 in a half marathon, or 2h20:00 in a marathon run in the last three years, and under 35:30, 1h17:30 or 2h45:00 (same conditions for women) and provided they have been achieved in events on the official World Athletics calendar on approved courses.

The elite race numbers will be personal and non-transferable and will be awarded in order of request, and until they are sold out, starting on May 2, 2025. There will be no personal refreshment or payment of expenses or fees to subelite athletes.

Elite race numbers will not be contracted or given to athletes who have had serious doping sanctions from World Athletics, regardless of whether they have served their sanction.

Article 7: Change the name or holder of the bib/chip

7.1 It will be possible to change the name or holder of the bib/chip through our registration platform in the Runner’s Area section “Request change of owner”.

It is the only method to make a change or transfer of legal holder.

You can legally transfer your number and place in the race to another runner through our platform. The new participant will formalize a new registration with his/her data thanks to the registration code (valid for at least 1 day) that the first runner must provide. The cost of the new registration will be the price of the section in force at the time of the change of holder. The refund of the original registration will be approved when the new registration is formalized.

Management costs for the change of holder of the registration:

Until 7 November, 5 euros for “Management costs”.
From 8 November to 27 November, 25€ for “Management costs” and reprinting of the number and chip (provided that the Organization authorizes it due to capacity issues).

The organisers reserve the right to modify the way in which the change is made.

7.2 For legal and sporting reasons, but above all for safety reasons, it will not be possible to transfer the bib to another runner without following the process foreseen for this purpose and without obtaining the organiser’s agreement.

In the event that the organisers become aware of this circumstance prior to the race, the bib that has been sold or transferred without authorisation will be disqualified, and the owner will not be open to participation in the race. In addition, given the risk run by those people who wear a bib without the knowledge of the organisers and the distortion produced in the rankings, the organisers may note down the details of the person who gives or sells a bib, preventing their registration for the following 4 years, and, where appropriate, inform other marathon, half marathon and 10K organisations of their actions. In the case of athletes who are members of the Royal Spanish Athletics Federation (RFEA) and the Comunitat Valenciana Athletics Federation, their conduct may also be reported so that, if appropriate, the corresponding measures may be taken.

7.3 The organisers reserve the right to prevent the athlete’s registration in the future and to inform other races of the procedure taken for those athletes disqualified for not having completed the entire 42,195 metres of the course. Likewise, the organisers reserve the right to take legal action against those who do not comply with these regulations.

Article 8: Withdrawal due to injury and returns

Under no circumstances can the registration be transferred to the following year.

8.1 Leave due to injury. The accreditation due to injury must be proven by means of an official medical certificate provided on the event registration website, in the Runner’s Area.

Conditions:

The withdrawal is due to physical injury, not for contracted diseases.
The 75% refund will be made until 7 September. Thereafter, and until 7 November , 50% will be returned. The possible contribution to the solidarity entity will not be returned, which will be donated to it. Management or duplication fees will not be refunded.

The refund will be made within 30 days by the same means of payment with which the registration was made.

8.2 Pregnancy leave. This will be granted to registered women with a medical certificate justifying the state of pregnancy.

8.3 Refund Insurance. If the Refund Insurance was taken out at the time of registration, you can request a refund of 80% of the amount, excluding the insurance fee, for any reason, until 30 November 2025. The solidarity contribution will not be refunded, if the there would be, since it will be donated directly to the solidarity entity. The amount of the insurance fee will not be returned, nor any management expense or duplication previously caused.

The refund Insurance can only be contracted at the time of registration, and cannot be added afterwards.

Article 9. Duplicate registrations

We try to avoid errors, as well as duplicate registrations for each race, by means of controls on the ticket platform. In the case of duplication of registrations, the first registration made of the duplicates will be canceled and a charge of 5 euros will be made as “Management expenses due to duplication” in the new registration.

Article 10: Collection of bibs and goodie bag

Notifications and other considerations

Article 14: Time control and rankings

The race is controlled by the Judges Committee of the Athletics Federation.

There will be time controls along the route. Only those participants who run the race with the chip provided by the organisers, which is located on the back of the race bib, will appear in the ranking. Runners are obliged to check that their chip is working properly at the corresponding stand at the ExpoDeporte Runners’ Expo when they collect their bib.

Neither the organisers, nor the sponsors, nor the main partner will assume any responsibility in the event the chip malfunctions.

Article 15: Infractions and disqualifications

15.1 The bibs/chips issued by the organisers are personal and non-transferable, and must be placed on the chest without tampering or folding. The control chip is also personal and non-transferable. Failure to comply with this article will be grounds for disqualification.

The organisers will not admit runners who are not registered or who run without a bib or with a bib that is not an unofficial one for this edition of the race. The organisers will prevent them from accessing the race in defence of the rights of those who are registered in accordance with the regulations. [Elite or World Athletics Label athletes who register as amateur runners will also not be admitted. The participation of all elite or World Athletics Label category athletes will have to be expressly agreed to by the organisers.]

For the safety of the runners, unauthorised vehicles will not be allowed access. The race judges and the organisers reserve the right to disqualify any offender who, if any irregularity is detected in any runner; (i) does not wear a visible bib, tampers with it and/or transfers it to another runner,(ii) alters the data provided to the organisers or the referee with respect to what appears on their ID card or federation card, (iii) does not complete the entire course, shows poor physical condition, does not provide the organisers with the required documentation, fails to comply with any other rule contemplated by the FACV, RFEA and World Athletics Regulations, accesses the course and/or accesses the finish line of the Valencia Marathon.

It will be compulsory for federated members to compete in their corresponding club’s kit, and they may be penalised if they do not do so.

Disqualified runners will not be eligible for prizes or trophies.

15.2 Given the serious damage that this would be caused to the organisers and the other runners in the race, in the event of access to the race that infringes the established access conditions or of any irregularity being committed, the organisers reserve the right to take the appropriate measures, in accordance with applicable legislation. Accordingly, appropriate civil, criminal or administrative proceedings will be instituted to hold the offender liable.

The irregularities that will give rise to the initiation of such actions include (i) not being registered for the race and therefore not having a bib/chip to participate in the race; (ii) running with the bib/chip of a third party (without having made the change of ownership or carrying it concealed); (iii) running with a bib/chip that does not correspond to that of the race; (iv) running with a falsified bib/chip (photocopied document or one that imitates the bib). This list is given by way of example and is not exhaustive, and there may be other irregularities which may give rise to legal action on the part of the organisers.

Both those who commit such irregularities and those who assist in them being carried out will be identified as “offending runners“.

Those runners who are identified as “offending runners” by the Organisers on the day of the race will be removed, identified and expelled by the race security personnel, in the exercise of their powers, and identification data will be obtained from them; photographs, etc., which will be used for the purpose of taking the corresponding legal action.

In the event that the infringement becomes known after the event has taken place, appropriate action will be taken as soon as the infringement becomes known.

The “offending runners” will receive notifications and/or summonses for the proceedings in which their possible liabilities will be judged, so they can take part in said proceedings.

Article 16: Route

The route will be marked with a line and all the kilometres will also be marked in accordance with World Athletics standards.

There will be liquid refreshments at kilometres 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 32, 35, 37.5 and 40, approximately, as well as one final liquid and solid station at the finish line.

Article 17: Medical Services

Medical services will be located along the route, as well as in the start and finish area. All registered runners are obliged to fill in details on the back of the bib including their name, surname, telephone number in case of emergency, whether they have any medical problem (allergy, special care, etc.) or are under any specific treatment, as well as their blood group.

Article 18: Vehicles authorised

The only vehicles authorised to follow the race will be those designated by the organisers. It is totally forbidden to follow the runners on motorcycle, bicycle, skates or any other wheeled vehicle. The local police and race judges will remove them from the course to avoid accidents.

Article 19

The organisers accept no responsibility for any damage, harm or injury that participants in this event may suffer or cause to third parties, although they do have Accident and Civil Liability Insurance that will cover the incidents inherent to the event.

Article 20: Complaints

Complaints must be made orally to the arbitrator, no later than 30 minutes after officially communicating the results. The decision of the arbitrator is not subject to appeal.

Article 21 – Cancellation or suspension of the race for reasons beyond the control of the race Organisers:

In the event that, for reasons beyond the organiser’s control, the race is suspended or the authorities do not authorise it for the date initially planned, the Organisers will notify the participants as far in advance as possible, indicating the new date of the event (which may be either in 2025 or 2026). Runners may opt for a refund if they do not wish to participate in the event on the new date. In this case, they will be informed how to proceed.

Health limitations

The event will comply with the health regulations in force in the Valencian Community at the time it is to be held. The Organisers will communicate this to all athletes, so that they can be aware of the new requirements and comply with them.

Under extraordinary circumstances, if the Organisers receive from the Health Authorities a communication prohibiting the race from being held with the initially planned number of participants, the Organisers will establish a draw to randomly select the participants until the new permitted number of participants is reached, giving the others the opportunity to recover 100% of their registration fee.
However, the Organisers reserve the right not to hold the event in the event that the number of participants allowed by the authorities is substantially reduced compared to that initially planned or if conditions are imposed that make it unfeasible to hold the event.

Disclaimer and Data protection

The purpose of this transfer will be to negotiate with the insurance company for the compulsory accident and civil liability insurance, as well as for the management of the day licence and the popular ranking of road races. Likewise, the data will be transferred to the main collaborator, the Trinidad Alfonso Foundation (TAF), to facilitate efficient collaboration between the latter and the organiser. In any event, and as established by the Data Protection Act, the data subject may in the future exercise their rights of access, rectification, deletion, objection, limitation and portability by writing or sending an email to the Royal Spanish Athletics Federation. Avenida de Valladolid nº 81 – 28008 Madrid.

Article 22

By registering, all participants declare that they are aware of and accept these Rules and the Disclaimer and Data Protection Policy. In case of doubt, the judgement of the organisers will prevail. Specifically, on their registration, the runners sign the following declaration:

“I am participating in the race on a completely voluntary basis and I consciously accept the difficulty of the race, taking into account its distance and technical difficulty, for which I declare that I have sufficient technical knowledge, experience and physical and psychological condition to cope with the characteristics of the race.

I declare that I am in optimum health to take part in the 45th Valencia Marathon Trinidad Alfonso, having the total certainty that I am physically and psychologically fit to do so and having passed the relevant medical check-ups, ruling out any illness, pathology, injury or any other health problem that might make my participation inadvisable. In the event of any change in my state of health at the time of the race, which would pose a risk to me or to the health of the other participants, I undertake not to take part in the race.

I also accept that I must comply with any requirements imposed by the Organisers in relation to health limitations.

During the competition, I will cooperate as far as possible with the organisers in order to avoid personal accidents and I will behave appropriately, without endangering my health or that of others. I agree to comply with the regulations set forth in the 45th VALENCIA MARATHON TRINIDAD ALFONSO ZURICH 2025 REGULATIONS, safety protocols and indications established by the organisers.

Taking into account all of the above, I exempt the organisers, sponsors, collaborators and/or other participating institutions from any responsibility for any accident, health problems or injury that I may suffer before, during and/or after the sporting event, renouncing any legal action against any of the aforementioned entities.

I also authorise the organisers to make use of photos, videos and any other audiovisual material in which I may appear for publicity purposes, and accept the publication of my name in the race ranking, in the media and/or on the Internet, without expecting any payment, compensation or retribution for this concept”

Notice: The organisers recommend that runners undergo a medical check-up prior to the race, all participants accepting the risk derived from the sporting activity.

Article 23

23.1 By registering for the Valencia Marathon Trinidad Alfonso Zurich, the participants give their consent that both the race organiser, S.D. Correcaminos, as well as its main partner, the Trinidad Alfonso Mocholí Foundation of the Comunitat Valenciana, as well as any other sponsor and/or contributor to the event, whether by themselves or through third party companies, may store, process and use their name, results, as well as their image collected during the event by means of photographs, videos, live tracking or estimation of position on the course during the event on the official app, or any other medium, and may process for exclusively sporting, promotional or commercial purposes their personal data, as well as their image during the event obtained by means of photographs, videos, etc. by means of any device (internet, advertising, etc.) and without any time limit.

23.2 The list of results will be published on the website.

23.3 The LiveTracking presented through the official race app can be viewed by any user who downloads the application for free, which is available on Google Play and the Apple Store. This option allows participants in the race to be tracked in real time by name or bib number. This is a functionality offered to runners so that family, friends and the general public can locate the runner on the course.By default, the tracking is performed through the runner’s chip that connects with sensors that are distributed along the route.

Between each sensor, the application takes the average speed of the runner to estimate their location, so the location may not be completely accurate during these periods. The app also offers the option of activating GPS tracking in case the race is run while carrying a mobile device. In this case, the tracking will be as accurate as the app allows.Through the “LiveTracking Privacy Info” option on the app, a runner can configure this functionality, so that the visualisation can be (i) Public: any user can see where they are by entering their name or bib number; (ii) With a pin code, only users to whom the runner provides the pre-established pin can track them; (iii) Hidden: no one can track them.

Neither the organisers, nor the sponsors, nor the main partner can be held responsible for any possible errors in location involving the app.
